A Costa Coffee drive-thru and other facilities could be coming a short distance away from 1,050 new homes being built on the former Gedling Colliery site.

A planning application has been submitted by Harworth Group to Gedling Borough Council to build the Costa along with a pub, restaurant, and offices on a brownfield site off Lambley Lane Lane, in Gedling.

In the planning statement, it says: "The proposed site has been designed to maximize the potential of the land whilst responding to the existing constraints.

"It is envisaged that this will consist of three warehouse type facilities, which will provide employment opportunities as per policy requirements.

"The employment units will enhance the wider area by providing new jobs to the local area and the Drive-Thru and Public House units will provide new food and beverage opportunities to serve the expanding local community."
